  • I returned to The Orange Box to finish its achievements after first playing it in 2008 and constantly finding reasons to put it off.
    A very fun collection of games that still hold up well to this day so if you haven't given it a go, I highly recommend.
    Hope you enjoy!

    The one bullet challenge in episode 1 actually made the episode insanely fun. The way it makes you use Alex to attack for you, makes you use physics props to kill enemies, and otherwise has you utilise environmental hazards makes me appreciate the level design. I swear most of the game could be played like this after getting the gravity launcher, HL has to be my favourite series from Valve.

    The Orange Box and subsequently the Valve Complete Pack (during Steam sales) are the greatest deals in gaming history, especially the Valve Complete Pack. It used to be an amazing deal at 20$ back in the day and now its costs something like 5$ during sales which is an absolute steal (but it also lost CSGO in the meantime so I guess it kinda still costs the same if you want csgo too, but its still such a steal)

    The term for it is called accelerated back hopping or ABH for short, it's a form of bunny hopping. You can do it on console because it's an updated version of the game which doesn't allow people to do it and that version doesn't exist on the Xbox and PS3 versions however in my experience performing an ABH on controller is incredibly difficult.

    • @indetermite
      @indetermite ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JForJackPlays The reason for that is the nature of ABH. It's because you need to jump tons in a single second. Pressing a button on a controller can be done about 8 times per second if you use your index finger, but, you can can use a mouse wheel, which would yield 50+ jumps per second. To enable it on a PC, enable the dev console, press ~ (the dev console key) then type "bind mwheelup +jump", then "bind mwheeldown +jump". After that ABH is enabled. I can barely do it, even on mouse/keyboard.
      To do ABH, jump, turn around in mid-air, then start scrolling the scroll wheel fast. If done correctly, you move at lightning speed backwards.
      Other glitches that should be mentioned if not already:
      Prop climbing/item glitch (HL2 + Portal): Go up against a wall with an item. Put an item below you, and start spamming the A and X buttons intermittently. This allows you to climb walls.
      Edge glitch/save glitch (Portal only): I have never been able to do this. Shoot a portal directly under you, along with another portal in any other spot. If this is done correctly, you'll get stuck. Then once you're stuck, save and load. Suddenly, you'll be able to go out of bounds.

    Hello the same guy who posted that it's possible to skip Highway 17 all the way to the light house on Sand traps.
    And after 6 days, I can confirm that it's possible.
    Idk how, but towards the light house the game checks for the car, and some dialogue is skipped if you left the car behind before you hit the first loading zone during Highway 17. Idk if it's possible to leave the car afterwards. I do know that the train part where you have to outrun an oncoming train apparently counts as destroying the car even if you left it nearby. But it is possible with some grenade jumping and either 75% or full health and suit.
    After the initial dialogue skip with the lighthouse the game proceeds as usual.
    Notable things that can happen that many people may know
    The gunship where you find the first salvage of cars doesn't appear.
    As stated above, the oncoming train section will count the car being destroyed if it's left behind that specific section.and the player decided to walk/run the tracks on foot.
    If the car is left behind in highway 17, ( maybe a bit later) you can just walk along the guard rail thing to avoid the train and proceed as normal.
    I've only had this happen to me twice, but in that same train section where you need to lower the shielding barrier thing, sometimes a gunship doesn't spawn, however the usual things still happen.
    That's all I can gather from my testing.
    It's possible to go through Highway 17 and Sand traps on foot.
    Watch for antlions and roller mines, lol

    I got all gold medals for portal 1 but didn't get all the achievements because the achievements were completly broken on steam for me so there is still 2 achievements remaining but I would like to think that I DID get all of them...but for portal 2 I got about if I can remember 51/57 achievements for portal 2...it is extremely hard because of co-op :(

    At that broken bridge, you can grab a box and item hop on the cliff over to the left, just change your jump to bumper and mash that jump and item grab against, I've cleared half life 2 console without the car and item hopping over most of scripts. I was poor and raised on orange box, and the amount of glitches you can learn to do on controller is uh actually rather limited but hey you can clear half the game by hoping over walls with a box or barrel

    I remember the gnome achievement, it was a fun challenge, so was the one for only using 1 bullet in HL2:E1.
    For some reason I could never find all the grubs, or save all the building from destruction outside the missile silo.

    Here are my only 3 HARDEST Achievements in The Orange Box for me:
    1. Keep Off The Sand! Cross the antlion beach in Chapter 8: Sandtraps without touching the sand. (Half Life 2)
    2. The One Free Bullet Complete all of the game firing only one shot. Grenades, SMG Grenades are allowed, Gun Turrets are allowed, Rockets, Crowbar, or the Gravity Gun and NOTHING ELSE. Those ONLY 6 are okay! (Half Life 2: Episode One)
    3. Little Rocket Man Send the garden gnome into space. Keep the gnome under the shelf throughout the whole game from Chapter 1: To The White Forest all the way up to Chapter 6: Our Mutual Fiend and then put the gnome into the rocket to shoot him off into space and close the hatch and then the achievement will unlock. (Half Life 2: Episode Two)
    That's it I guess! I hope you like it! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

    I’m all for playing on original hardware, but if you wanted to play on modern day Xbox just put the 360 save into the cloud on the 360. Then when you play on newer Xbox it’ll automatically pull this save

    I know that it is possible to go with out the car in the very start of that chapter and not have the game soft lock.
    I think it's because you need to either trigger the lighthouse or something. But I know it's possible. I've done it multiple times after grenade/SMG grenade jumping over the gap.
    I may need to to experiment again, I still use my Xbox 360 even though I have a PS4.
    Still, nice job on the achievements. Shame that the file was gone but using a guide for the achievement was the best bet since you already had most of them anyway.

    I honestly had the most fun with portal challenges, I rarely do any challenges in games, but portal was my jam. Getting a score that was above the gold medal was delicious. Except for the time challenges. Those weren't interesting to me.
    That's to say "difficult" can be very subjective.

    Accelerated backhopping etc is possible on a controller it's just more funky and sometimes you can do it and sometimes not because it's a bit tricky.
